“Daniel Murphy showed up all the veterans and several of his young counterparts by gliding through sprints this morning like he was Usain Bolt or something,” writes Bart Hubbuch to his blog for the New York Post.

According to Hubbuch, ‘Murphy is in great shape and looks like he wishes the season would start yesterday.’

Hubbuch also blogs about when Francisco Rodriguez is expected in camp; the bond between JJ Putz, Sean Green and Jeremy Reed; and Jerry Manuel, who is expected to arrive on Thursday.

Lastly, in a post to his blog for Newsday, David Lennon provides a lengthy quote from Ryan Church, regarding Mike Francesa’s off-season statement that he was unhappy in New York City.

In short, Church says he loves New York, adding about Francesa, adding, “Everybody’s entitled to their own opinion and stuff like that, but I know what I said and what I didn’t say.”
